dey must strike on shiony or polished surfaces
When light rays bounce back, we say they are reflected. Reflection is the bouncing back of light waves when they hit a surface.
The bouncing back of light is called Reflection
It is called diffuse reflection when light rays hit a rough surface and bounce back at different angles. This creates a scattered reflection rather than a clear, single reflection.
When light hits the water and reflects back, it is called glare. Glare can happen when the angle of incidence matches the angle of reflection, causing the light to bounce off the surface directly back towards the observer's eyes.
This process is known as reflection. Light rays bounce off the smooth surface at an equal angle to the angle at which they hit it, following the law of reflection. This allows us to see objects due to the reflection of light off their surfaces.
When light rays bounce off a surface and back to your eyes, the process is called reflection. This allows you to see the object the light rays bounced off of. The angle at which the light rays are reflected depends on the angle at which they hit the surface, following the law of reflection.
it is the one and only thing that causes the light to bounce back and it is known as the one and only thing.......... Actually not thing but yes............., no................ Leave it. The thing is REFLECTION. Ya, my dear and dearest friends it is REFLECTION.
reflect off the mirror's surface at the same angle they hit it, following the law of reflection. This means the light rays will bounce back in the opposite direction from which they came, allowing you to see the reflection of the light.
An example of reflection of light is when you see your own reflection in a mirror. Light waves bounce off the smooth surface of the mirror and travel back to your eyes, allowing you to see your image.
When light hits an object/surface, it's either reflected, absorbed, or refracted. For light to bounce back, the reflection has to be "specular", like a mirror. So the light bounces back with the same(reflected) image. For light to be reflected back at the source. The light has to hit perpendicular to the surface, which is 90°.
Reflection or refraction if the wave scatters.
A mirror reflects light by causing it to bounce off its smooth and flat surface. When light hits a mirror, it undergoes a specular reflection, where it reflects at the same angle as it hits the mirror. This reflection creates an image of the object that is reflected in the mirror.
